Chapter 23 The Funeral Farce (Part 1)

My son! How could you be so heartless? Leaving your father and mother in this world like this? My son! How could you die so young? Before, our family was poor and you couldn't enjoy any happiness! Now that our family is wealthy, it's the time for us to enjoy our retirement, and yet you...

At this moment, Old Man Yang led Yingying to Gou Dan's portrait, lit two incense sticks, and then bowed to Gou Dan's portrait.

May you rest in peace, Brother Gou Dan! I will take good care of your uncle and aunt for you!

Brother, please accept my deepest condolences! Our son was a kind and compassionate man; he will surely be enjoying bliss in heaven. Therefore, please, elder brother and sister-in-law, do not grieve excessively! His spirit in heaven will surely bless your entire family with peace and safety!

Just then, Xiulan, who was crying her heart out, heard Yang Muwang and Jianying's voices. She rushed to Yang Muwang, grabbed his collar, and shook him violently.

What are you doing here at my son's funeral with this worthless piece of trash? Tell me! Are you here to laugh at us?

No! We've come here with sincere hearts to mourn Gou Dan! We all loved Gou Dan very much when he was alive!

Xiulan became even angrier when she heard Yang Muwang say that, and pointed her finger at Yang Muwang's nose angrily, saying: "Do you like our dog Dan so you can feed him to your beast? That beast has no humanity! Don't you have any humanity?"

Yang Muwang frowned upon hearing this, and thought of a little snowball that loved to lie at his feet.

Auntie, what are you saying? My father doesn't keep any animals! He certainly didn't feed Brother Gou Dan to any animals!

Xiulan raised her hand and slapped Jianying hard across the face; Go away! What do you know, you worthless piece of trash? Do you even know that your father is a heartless man?

I won't allow you to talk about my father like that. My father is the best person in the world.

Haha! Listen to this little girl's sharp tongue! What an ill-mannered brat! Didn't your parents teach you anything? Children shouldn't interrupt adults.

Of course! But my parents also taught me a saying: it is disrespectful for a son to scold his father.

Xiulan realized she couldn't win the argument with Jianying, so she raised her hand in mid-air again, intending to slap Jianying once more.

At this moment, Chunwang seemed to remember something and quickly stepped forward to grab his wife's hand, which was raised in mid-air.

Honey, please don't get so agitated. I have a great idea for you, would you like to hear it?

When Xiulan heard her husband say this, she lowered her hand that was raised in mid-air.

When Yang Muwang saw that his youngest daughter, Jianying, had been beaten, he quickly pulled her into his arms and covered her ears tightly with his hands.

If you have a problem, come at me! Please don't drag my youngest daughter into this! Is that beast you're talking about my Xue'er?

I don't know what Xue'er is, but I do know that your beast is a snow wolf! Recently, some people have seen a snow wolf always walking around your house.

Yang Muwang was shocked to hear this, wondering if his Xue'er was still alive. If she was, why hadn't she come looking for him all these years?

Oh no! What? How could his family keep such ferocious creatures? What if they bite someone?

Daddy, when did we start raising a wolf? Yingying didn't know about this.

Just as everyone was discussing the matter, a white wolf rushed into the mourning hall. The wolf quickly ran to Yang Muwang and Jianying and stopped, shielding the father and daughter behind it.

Ah! White Wolf, what are you doing here?

Father, Yingying, you really are here? I don't know why, but after this white wolf came home with us, it looked us over all over. It seemed like it was looking for something?

A wolf suddenly appeared in your house. Your mother must have been terrified, right? Did the wolf harm you?

As Mu Wang spoke, he quickly pulled his eldest daughter to his side and carefully examined Jianmei's body for any scratches.

It's strange! The wolf didn't hurt us! It just went to my house, walked all over the place, and then ran here.

Ah! This! This! This! Is this the white wolf he keeps at home?

Why does he keep this white wolf locked up? Isn't he afraid it will bite someone if he lets it out?

Oh! I suddenly remembered where all those injuries on my little one came from! They must have been inflicted by that white wolf.

Don't talk nonsense! My Xue'er would never bite anyone, much less eat people! And Xiulan, didn't you say that I took Gou Dan to feed Xue'er? Then may I ask, what's in this coffin?

Needless to say, it's the corpse of my poor son! What do you mean by asking us this?

Of course, an autopsy is necessary! Didn't you say your dog was killed by my Xue'er? You need to let me see exactly how badly Xue'er bit the dog. That way, I can determine how much compensation we should pay you based on the dog's injuries.

Pay compensation? Yang Muwang, in your eyes, is my son worth only a few cents? Haven't you heard the saying, "A life for a life"?

Yang Muwang carried Jianying and stepped forward. When the white wolf saw its master step forward, it followed.

"What do you want to do? You've already let this beast eat my son, do you want it to eat me too? Yang Muwang, let me tell you! Murder is punishable by death!" Xiulan said angrily, pointing her finger at Yang Muwang's nose.

The white wolf, already on the verge of exploding in rage, could no longer contain its temper. Before Yang Muwang could even intervene, it pounced on Xiulan, scratching her face repeatedly with its sharp claws.

Tear it open! Die! You beast, get out of my way right now!

The white wolf not only did not stop scratching Xiulan, but also tried to bite her to death with its mouth.

At this moment, Yang Muwang quickly stepped forward and hugged the white wolf in his arms, gently stroking its head. Then, something strange happened! The white wolf, which had been on the verge of exploding in rage, instantly calmed down. And it even began to purr its head like a cat.
